Coinciding with Hatsune Miku’s birthday – which turns out to be today, August 31, some online retailers have begun taking up reservations for Nendoroid Hatsune Miku (Absolute HMO Edition). The good news is, this adorable Miku is NOT a limited release. As mentioned in the previous post, she will include a keyboard, an electric drum set, as well as face stickers for Rin and Len. Her official retail price is 4000 Yen and slated to be released on December 2010. Read more details at the official page and secure your order A.S.A.P! ^^

Nendoroid Petit K-ON!

Nendoroid Petit K-ON! Set is also available for reservation starting today. For a box of 6000 Yen, you’ll get Yui, Mio, Ritsu, Tsumugi, and Azusa in both school uniforms and swimsuits (for a total of 10), a tanned version of Azusa, and one special/hidden/secret Petit. If you prefer to buy it separately – which I don’t think you would, they’re available for 500 Yen each. Yep, this Petit set is scheduled to release on December too. ^^;

The recent days has been very busy for Nendoroid Makise Kurisu from Steins;Gate. After her arrival from Animelo 2010, she attended a photo session by GSC staff, Mikatan, just now. See the photos after the break – and don’t forget to plan your finance, as she will be available for pre-order as soon as … umm … September 2. ^^;

Some online retailers have started taking reservation for Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi (Disappearance version) today. As you probably know, she has a long hair in this version, which makes her looks different compared to the standard Haruhi. She also includes some extra parts to be used with Nendoroid Nagato Yuki, which has been available for pre-orders previously. Here’s some tips for you: (1) see this post for more Haruhi photos, (2) secure your pre-order for 3500 Yen each, and (3) wait patiently until December. Viva Haruhi-ism! ^^

This year’s Animelo, dubbed Animelo Summer Live 2010 -evolution- had Black Rock Shooter as its main theme. Aside from treating the visitors with various BRS-themed products (drinks, figurines, etc), they also had a few Nendoroids exhibited there. Enjoy the photos past the break. ^^

Chara Hobby 2010, another annual hobby event is being held at Japan. Yep, GSC also took part in the exhibition and they showed a few new Nendoroids there – which would potentially damage your piggy bank in a not-so-distant future. Read past the break to take a look at the goodness. ^^;

Some online retailers has just opened reservation for the manga Harumi Nation Limited Edition volume 2, which will also include a lovely Nendoroid Petit Hosono Harumi as a bonus. The flying alien heroine + manga set will be priced at 1600 Yen and scheduled to release on … December 2010. Well, if you are really into Harumi, then reserve one ASAP as this one will probably be very limited. ^^;
